I guess this would go here. I have a Chevy smallblock and I wanna put a second alt up top where the AC compressor is. Is there a drivers side top alt bracket kit? I know there are lower mount alt brackets. I've heard you can take a lower mount bracket and flip it over and up and use it on the drivers top side. Is this true? Anyone that knows gimme some info please.

Yeah, 283...Not sure on the newer vehicle's engine compartment space, or the setup, iirc it depends on the intake manifold and water pump placement...

On the late 50's early 60's 283's I've seen/worked on the alt was always on the upper drivers side originally. The mount was just a two bolt mount on the easy to access metal arm. I'm not sure if I have ever seen an early 60's 283 impala without the upper driver side alt bracket.

Well dont really quote me on the displacement:cwm22:engine got swapped before i got the truck and all i know is its a small one. People tell me 283, 263 or something, I've got some pics of my engine bay on this comp somewhere, let me see if i can find them to put them up, that might help

If you can find any numbers/letters stamped on the block I can give you the info. Just tell me whats stamped on there and where on the block you found it. Check around the heads, tranny, bell housing, and oil filter or oil pan edge.

If you want to pm me the vin I can maybe tell you about the rest of the vehicle as far as production (where and when it was made)...

I'll look around it this weekend and see if i can get some numbers on the block. But still, does anyone know if you can take a lower mount bracket and flip it up top where the A/C compressor would be?
